Caramel-Dipped Apples
This bulk caramel is great caramel for dipping apples. Depending on how thick you want the caramel to coat the apple, it will need to be about 120-150 degrees, but it's not an exact science. 5 pounds of caramel covers ABOUT 20 apples depending on the size of the apple and the temperature of the caramel.

Peter's CaramelCaramel Fondue: Melt together 1 can sweetened condensed milk + 1 stick of butter + 1 lb. Peter's Caramel. Try this in a fondue fountain!

A Note About CaramelCheryl Sandberg

By Cheryl Sandberg

After one day of unwrapping 50 gazillian caramel wrappers (OK maybe that's a slight exaggeration) to make a caramel coated apple, I started to look on the net for bulk caramel. My search brought me several places to buy bulk caramel, but it eventually brought me to a place to try Peter's Caramel. I love the soft, pliable feel that Peter's offers. I found that it is demanded by professionals for its high quality, superior flavor and ready-to-use convenience. I began experimenting with the caramel and made different kinds of turtles. Before I knew it, I was going around dipping things in caramel like a crazy woman! Apples, popcorn, pretzels, peaches, nuts... Everything in my kitchen! I enjoy scooping a plain ball of the caramel and dipping it in chocolate for an easy truffle center. I've made a few recipes and tried a few things. Below are some of my favorites. I'm looking for more recipes all the time.

Chocolate Caramel Truffles Recipe

Truffles:

10 oz. dark chocolate, finely chopped
1/2 pound of Bulk Peter's Caramel, microwaved in 30-second intervals to melt, being careful not to scorch.

Finishing: 1/2 C. unsweetened, Dutch-process cocoa powder


Place chopped chocolate in medium bowl and pour caramel over it. Let sit for 1 minute, then gently whisk mixture until it is blended and smooth. Cover and refrigerate until cold and solidified, about 2 to 3 hours.

To shape truffles, use truffle scoop and roll chocolate/caramel mixture into balls. Put truffles on waxed paper. Refrigerate truffles 15 to 20 minutes, or until firm.

To coat truffles, sift cocoa into medium bowl. Drop several truffles into the bowl and quickly toss them in cocoa. Set each truffle into a small candy cup (or layer them in a storage container on sheets of parchment paper). Refrigerate, covered, until needed (they also freeze perfectly).

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Makes 50 to 85 truffles, depending on size.

Place truffles in a single box, a triple truffle box, or a clear oval box that holds 4 truffles.

EASY Chocolate/Caramel-Dipped Pretzel Recipe

Melt 1/2 pound of bulk caramel in microwave in 30-second intervals to avoid scorching, stirring to distribute heat.

Melt 1/2 pound of Guittard molding chocolate in the same way.

Dip the pretzel into the caramel and use the dipping tool to make sure the entire pretzel is covered, or only cover part of it for an artistic look. Let cool for 2 minutes.

Dip the caramel-coated pretzel into the chocolate and coat the same way you did with the caramel.

Place on waxed paper and place in refrigerator to cool for a nice shiny appearance.

Or, while the chocolate is wet, add confetti candy to the top for a dash of color
